Ice forming at cold store doors isn’t just a nuisance — it’s a safety hazard, a maintenance cost, and a silent energy thief. Left untreated, it leads to slippery floors, damaged stock, and a constant battle to maintain temperature control.
The Problem
When warm air meets sub-zero environments, condensation forms — and quickly freezes. This is common in high-traffic cold stores where doors are opened frequently, or where curtain systems are missing, poorly fitted, or degraded over time.
Our Go-To Solution
At Crystal Rubber, we typically recommend a polar-grade PVC strip curtain system rated to –40°C. It’s fast to install, food-safe, and cost-effective. Our systems use overlapping 300mm x 3mm strips with stainless steel hangers to create a reliable thermal barrier without disrupting access.
What You Can Expect
- ✔️ Immediate reduction in ice formation
- ✔️ More stable internal temperatures
- ✔️ Improved safety for staff
- ✔️ No need to shut down operations during install
Why It Works
Keeping cold stores ice-free isn’t just about compliance — it’s about cost and safety. A stable environment reduces energy bills, extends equipment life, and lowers accident risk. All with a solution that takes hours to install and lasts for years.
